Description
Gebiet der ErfindungTerritory of invention
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine implantierbare Prothese zur Herniereparatur und ein Verfahren für das Verstärken und Reparieren von geschädigtem Gewebe oder von Muskelwänden.The The present invention relates to an implantable prosthesis for Hernia repair and a method for reinforcing and repairing damaged tissue or from muscle walls.
Hintergrund der Erfindungbackground the invention
Verschiedene prothetische Netzmaterialien sind vorgeschlagen worden, um die Bauchwand zu verstärken und um Bauchwanddefekte unter Nutzung verschiedener Prothesen zur Reparatur und von Verfahren der Anbringung zu verschließen. Die Verfahren für die Vornahme einer chirurgischen Reparatur können in zwei Hauptvorgehensweisen unterteilt werden. Die Reparatur kann ausschließlich von der anterioren Seite (am nahesten zum Chirurgen) des Defekts aus vorgenommen werden, indem der Sack von der Faszie freigeschnitten und in den Präperitonealraum zurückgedrückt wird und für einen dauerhaften Verschluß des Defekts gesorgt wird. Der Verschluß kann durch die Anwendung von raumfüllenden Prothesen und Abdeck-Streifen (spannungsfreie Techniken) vorgenommen werden, oder er kann durch die Verwendung von Nahtmaterial (Spannungs-Techniken) erzielt werden.Various Prosthetic mesh materials have been suggested to the abdominal wall to reinforce and abdominal wall defects using different prostheses Repair and fixing procedures. The proceedings for the Performing a surgical repair can be done in two main ways be divided. The repair can only be done from the anterior side (closest to the surgeon) of the defect are made out of by cutting the sack off the fascia and into the prepperitoneal space is pushed back and for a permanent closure of the Defect is taken care of. The closure can by the application of space filling Prostheses and cover strips (tension-free techniques) made or he can through the use of suture material (tension techniques) be achieved.
Ein Beispiel einer spannungsfreien anterioren Reparatur besteht darin, eine Lage eines chirurgischen Netzgewebes zu einer mehrlagigen Konuskonfiguration zu falten und den Gewebepfropf danach in einen Herniedefekt einzubringen, um den Hohlraum zu verschließen. Eine solche Mehrlagen-Prothese ist inhärent steif, und es kann sein, daß sie nicht vollständig Ungleichmäßigkeiten in der Kontur des Defekts entspricht und Lücken zwischen dem Implantat und der Bauchwand beläßt, die potentiell zu einer wiederauftretenden Hernienbildung führen könnten. Der steife, mehrlagige Gewebepfropf kann während des Plazierens auch anfällig für Knicken und Verwerfen sein.One Example of a tension-free anterior repair is to a layer of surgical mesh to a multilayer cone configuration to fold and then insert the Gewebepfropf in a hernia defect, to close the cavity. Such a multi-layer prosthesis is inherently stiff and it may be that she not completely unevenness in the contour of the defect corresponds and gaps between the implant and the abdominal wall leaves that could potentially lead to recurrent herniation. Of the Stiff, multi-layered tissue graft may also be prone to kinking during placement Be discarded.
Das U.S.-Patent Nummer 5,356,432 offenbart eine implantierbare Prothese, die ein konischer Pfropf ist, ausgebildet aus einem gewirkten monofilen Polypropylen-Netzgewebe. Längsfalten werden in den Gewebekörper heißgeformt, um die Flexibilität des konischen Implantats zu erhöhen, was es idealerweise dem Implantat ermöglicht, sich eng an die Kontur der sich bruchartig vorwölbenden Öffnung anzupassen, wenn diese innerhalb des Defekts zusammengedrückt wird. Wenn die Vorrichtung in einen Fasziendefekt eingebracht wird, drückt die Spitze des konusförmigen Pfropfes in den und gegen den Eingeweidesack, wodurch potentiell eine langfristige Erosion des Peritoneums und der darunter liegenden Eingeweide möglich gemacht wird. Bei einer Ausführungsform weist die Vorrichtung Füllmaterial auf, das in das Innere des ausgebildeten Gewebekonus eingefügt ist, in dem Bemühen, die Kontraktion der Vorrichtung während des Heilungsprozesses zu minimieren. Wenn Kollagen-Narbengewebe in das prothetische Material hinein wächst, bewirkt das Vernetzen der reifenden Kollagenfasern, daß sich das Narbengewebe (und die verkapselte Pfropfvorrichtung) zusammenzieht. Diese Kontraktion von Narbengewebe innerhalb des Defekts und des Pfropfes bewirkt, daß das umgebende erkrankte Gewebe Spannung ausgesetzt wird, was ein Wiederauftreten der Hernie entlang des Randes des konischen Pfropfes möglich macht. Der Einsatz der Vorrichtung erfordert den Durchgang eines zuvor expandierten Pfropfes durch den Herniendefekt und stützt sich auf die radiale Ausdehnungskraft des einlagigen Gewebekonus und der Füllmaterial-Blätter, um den Defekt zu verschließen. Darüber hinaus kann sich, da der Pfropf in seiner Position durch Verankerung an dem umgebenden erkrankten Gewebe befestigt wird, die Vorrichtung verschieben und innerhalb des Präperitonealraumes wandern.The U.S. Patent No. 5,356,432 discloses an implantable prosthesis which is a conical graft formed from a knitted monofilament Polypropylene mesh. longitudinal folds be in the tissue body hot formed for the flexibility of conical implant, What ideally allows the implant to closely fit the contour to adapt to the fracturely bulging opening when compressed within the defect. When the device is introduced into a fascia defect, pushes the tip of the cone-shaped plug in and against the entraining sac, potentially causing long-term erosion of the peritoneum and the underlying viscera becomes. In one embodiment the device has filling material which is inserted in the interior of the formed tissue cone, in an effort the contraction of the device during the healing process to minimize. When collagen scar tissue in the prosthetic material growing in, The crosslinking of the maturing collagen fibers causes the Scar tissue (and the encapsulated grafting device) contracts. This contraction of scar tissue within the defect and the Graft causes the surrounding diseased tissue is subjected to tension, causing a recurrence the hernia along the edge of the conical plug makes possible. The use of the device requires the passage of a previously expanded graft through the hernia defect and is supported on the radial expansion force of the single-layer tissue cone and the filler leaves to to close the defect. About that In addition, since the graft can anchor in its position by anchoring attached to the surrounding diseased tissue, the device shift and within the preperitoneal space hike.
Alternativ kann ein Defekt mit Hilfe von posterioren Vorgehensweisen repariert werden, welche verschiedene prothetische Vorrichtungen im Präperitonealraum bereitstellen, um zu verhindern, daß das Peritoneum in den Fasziendefekt eintritt. Diese Vorrichtungen erfordern in einigen Fällen den Einsatz von laparoskopischen Verfahren, und in anderen Fällen erfordern sie die Anwendung der Prothese von einem Ort unter dem Defekt aus, der repariert werden soll. Beispiele von posterioren Vorgehensweisen werden in den Patenten der Vereinigten Staaten Nummer 5,116,357, 5,254,133 und 5,916,225 offengelegt. In vielen Fällen sind Verfahren, die solche Vorrichtungen einsetzen, jedoch kompliziert, und darüber hinaus machen sie eine Allgemeinnarkose und teure Instrumente für den Einmalgebrauch für die Unterstützung der laparoskopischen Operation erforderlich.alternative can repair a defect with the help of posterior procedures which are various prosthetic devices in the preperitoneal space to prevent the peritoneum from entering the fascia defect entry. These devices in some cases require the Use of laparoscopic procedures, and in other cases require the application of the prosthesis from a place under the defect, to be repaired. Become examples of posterior approaches in United States Patent Nos. 5,116,357, 5,254,133 and 5,916,225. In many cases, methods are those devices use, but complicated, and beyond that they do one General anesthesia and expensive disposable instruments for supporting the laparoscopic surgery required.
Demgemäß besteht auf dem Gebiet des Standes der Technik ein Mangel an einer implantierbaren Prothese zur Herniereparatur für das Verschließen und Reparieren von geschädigten Muskel- und Gewebewandrupturen, die sich an Unregelmäßigkeiten in der Form des Defekts anpassen kann, die einfach eingesetzt werden kann, die keine Allgemeinnarkose während des Einsetzen erforderlich macht und dem radialen Zusammenfallen auf Grund von Gewebeinkorporation widersteht.Accordingly, there is In the field of the prior art, a lack of an implantable Prosthesis for hernia repair for the closing and repairing damaged ones Muscle and tissue wall tears that are due to irregularities in the form of the defect that can be easily used which does not require general anesthesia during insertion and radial collapse due to tissue incorporation resists.

Detaillierte Beschreibung der ErfindungDetailed description the invention
Die vorliegende Erfindung stellt implantierbare Prothesen und Verfahren für das Verstärken und Reparieren geschwächter Abdomenwände bereit. Die Prothesen werden aus einer biokompatiblen, flexiblen und porösen medizinischen Textilie ausgebildet, die für das Verstärken von Gewebe und das Verschließen von Gewebedefekten geeignet ist. Die implantierbaren Prothesen sind besonders angezeigt für die Reparatur von Hernien in der Bauchhöhle, einschließlich von Hernia inguinalis (direkt und indirekt), Hernia femoralis, Inzisionshernien und rezidivierenden Hernien, und sie sorgen für zumindest eine partielle posteriore Reparatur. Die Prothesen können problemlos in einem spannungsfreien Zustand in einen Fasziendefekt mit einer anterioren Vorgehensweise eingebracht werden, und sie sind zu einer radialen Expansion in der Lage, zumindest partiell in den präperitonealen Raum hinein, um im wesentlichen die Faszienwand eines Fasziendefekts zu verschließen und dieser zu entsprechen. Die Prothesen sind geeignet für die Reparatur von Hernien unterschiedlicher Größen und Formen, und sie können am umgebenden gesunden Gewebe verankert werden, um Wanderung zu verhindern, und sie erstrecken sich somit über den Rand des Defekts auf der anterioren Seite des Defekts hinaus. Andere Merkmale der vorliegenden Erfindung werden offensichtlich werden aus der nachfolgenden detaillierten Beschreibung im Zusammenhang mit den beigefügten Zeichnungen, welche mehrere Ausführungsformen der Erfindung offenlegen. Die Zeichnungen dienen nur Veranschaulichungszwecken, und sie sind nicht als eine Definition der Grenzen der Erfindung beabsichtigt.The present invention provides implantable prostheses and methods for reinforcing and repairing weakened abdominal walls. The prostheses are formed from a biocompatible, flexible and porous medical textile suitable for reinforcing tissue and sealing tissue defects. The implantable prostheses are particularly indicated for the repair of hernias in the abdominal cavity, including hernia inguinalis (direct and indirect), femoral hernia, incisional hernias, and recurrent hernias, and provide at least partial posterior repair. The prostheses can be easily inserted into a fascia defect with an anterior approach in a tension-free state, and are capable of radial expansion, at least partially into the prepperitoneal space, to substantially close and conform to the fascia wall of a fascia defect , The prostheses are suitable for repairing hernias of different sizes and shapes, and they can be anchored to the surrounding healthy tissue to prevent migration, and thus extend beyond the edge of the defect on the anterior Side of the defect. Other features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which disclose several embodiments of the invention. The drawings are for illustration purposes only and are not intended as a definition of the limits of the invention.
Die Prothesen der vorliegenden Erfindung umfassen ein hohles, radial expandierbares Glied zum Planieren in einen Fasziendefekt und für das Verschließen desselben. Radial expandierbar bedeutet, daß sich der Querschnittsbereich des Glieds erweitert, von einer anfänglichen, nicht-expandierten Konfiguration mit einem anfänglichen Querschnittsbereich, dessen Größe so ausgelegt ist, daß das Glied innerhalb eines Fasziendefekts in einem spannungsfreien Zustand plaziert werden kann, zu einer endgültigen expandierten Ausgestaltung, die einen endgültigen Querschnittsbereich aufweist, der größer ist als der anfängliche Querschnittsbereich und der wirksam dafür ist, den gesamten Fasziendefekt oder zumindest einen wesentlichen Teil desselben zu verschließen. Dieses Glied kann aus biokompatiblem resorbierbaren oder nicht-resorbierbarem Material hergestellt werden.The Prostheses of the present invention include a hollow, radial expandable member for leveling in a fascia defect and closing it. Radially expandable means that the cross-sectional area of the limb, from an initial, unexpanded configuration with an initial one Cross-sectional area whose size is designed so is that the limb within a fascia defect in a stress-free state can be placed to a final expanded design, the one final Has cross-sectional area that is greater than the initial Cross-sectional area and which is effective for the entire fascia defect or at least to seal off a substantial part of it. This Limb may be made of biocompatible resorbable or non-absorbable Material to be produced.
Die Prothese umfaßt ebenfalls ein Mittel für die Befestigung der Prothese an der Gewebewand. Bei bestimmten Ausführungsformen umfaßt das Mittel für die Befestigung eine Abdecklage aus einer medizinischen Textilie, die fest oder manövrierbar mit dem radial expandierbaren Glied verbunden ist, wie dies in den Figuren gezeigt wird. Wenn sie manövrierbar, zum Beispiel verschiebbar mit dem expandierbaren Glied verbunden ist, kann die Abdecklage so mit dem radial expandierbaren Glied mit Hilfe eines Fadens oder mehrfacher Fäden verbunden werden, die durch das Schlingen-Nahtmaterial oder das proximale Ende des expandierbaren Gliedes hindurch geführt werden und mit dem Abdeckstreifen an den Abschlußenden des Fadens verbunden werden. Prothesen, welche ein solches verschiebbar oder manövrierbar verbundenes Mittel für die Befestigung der Prothesen an der Gewebewand und ein Glied für das Verschließen des Defekts umfassen, sind ebenfalls in den hierin offengelegten Schutzumfang der Erfindung eingeschlossen. Bei diesen Ausführungsformen ist es nicht erforderlich, daß das verschließende Glied radial expandierbar ist, sondern es muß nur wirksam für das Verschließen des Defekts sein. Einer der Vorteile einer solchen Prothese besteht darin, daß, sobald sie in den Defektbereich plaziert worden ist, das Befestigungsmittel so manövriert werden kann, daß eine Verbindung mit stabilem oder gesundem Gewebe erzielt werden kann, wodurch für eine sichere Verbindung mit der Gewebewand gesorgt wird.The Includes prosthesis also a means for the Attachment of the prosthesis to the tissue wall. In certain embodiments comprises the means for the attachment a cover layer of a medical textile, the firm or maneuverable is connected to the radially expandable member, as shown in the Figures is shown. If they are manoeuvrable, for example, movable connected to the expandable member, the cover layer can so with the radially expandable member by means of a thread or multiple threads connected by the loop suture or the proximal End of the expandable member are guided through and with the cover strip at the conclusion of the thread. Prostheses, such a displaceable or manoeuvrable associated means for the attachment of the prostheses to the tissue wall and a member for closing the Are also within the scope disclosed herein of the invention included. In these embodiments, it is not necessary that this closes Element is radially expandable, but it only has to be effective for closing the Be defect. One of the advantages of such a prosthesis exists in that, once it has been placed in the defect area, the fastener so maneuvered can be that one Connection with stable or healthy tissue can be achieved which for a secure connection with the tissue wall is taken care of.
Bei anderen Ausführungsformen kann das Mittel für die Befestigung der Prothese ein fester Bestandteil des radial expandierbaren Gliedes sein. Die Prothese wird in einen Defekt/durch einen Defekt in der Faszien-Lage geführt. Das radial expandierbare Glied wird dann axial zusammengedrückt, wodurch eine radiale Expansion des radial expandierbaren Gliedes bewirkt wird. Die radiale Expansion des radial expandierbaren Gliedes bewirkt einen im wesentlichen vollständigen Verschluß des Fasziendefekts.at other embodiments can be the means for the attachment of the prosthesis is an integral part of the radially expandable Be member. The prosthesis is in a defect / by a defect guided in the fascial situation. The radially expandable member is then compressed axially, whereby a radial expansion of the radially expandable member is effected. The radial expansion of the radially expandable member causes a substantially complete Closure of the Fascia defect.
Verschiebbares oder anderweitig manövrierbares Verbinden des radial expandierbaren Gliedes mit dem Mittel für die Befestigung macht es möglich, das Abdeckglied relativ zum entfalteten expandierbaren Glied zu manövrieren und anzupassen, sobald es innerhalb des Fasziendefekts plaziert worden ist. Dies sorgt für den zusätzlichen Vorteil, relativ zum Ligament und anderen anatomischen Strukturen positionierbar zu sein, sobald es positioniert worden ist, gegenüber herkömmlichen Prothesen zur Reparatur von Fasziendefekten, die fest mit dem Mittel für das Befestigen an umgebendem Gewebe verbunden sind, und die nicht anpaßbar sind, sobald die Prothesen innerhalb des Fasziendefekts plaziert und befestigt worden sind.Sliding or otherwise manoeuvrable Connecting the radially expandable member to the means for attachment makes it possible that Maneuver cover member relative to the deployed expandable member and adjust as soon as it is placed within the fascia defect has been. This ensures the additional Advantage, relative to the ligament and other anatomical structures be positionable once it has been positioned, compared to conventional Prostheses for repair of fascial defects fixed with the agent for fixing connected to surrounding tissue, and which are not adaptable, once the prostheses are placed within the fascia defect and attached have been.
Die radiale Expansion des Glieds kann zwar mit Hilfe von Mitteln für die radiale Expansion des Glieds bewirkt werden, wie sie hierin erörtert und veranschaulicht werden, jedoch sind Prothesen, die selbst-expandierend, das heißt selbst-zusammenfallend sind, wenn sie innerhalb des Fasziendefekts in Position gebracht worden sind, in den Schutzumfang der vorliegenden Erfindung eingeschlossen. Diese Vorrichtungen können so hergestellt werden, daß sie sich entfalten werden, das heißt axial zusammenfallen und radial expandieren, um den Defekt zu verschließen, wenn sie innerhalb eines Defekts positioniert worden sind, als Reaktion auf Zustände des Körpers, der den Defekt umgibt. Vorzugsweise kann ein Schlingen-Nahtmaterial, das longitudinal durch den Hohlraum des radial expandierbaren Gliedes entlang der Achse desselben geführt wird, als ein Mittel für die radiale Expansion des Glieds dienen.The Although radial expansion of the member can indeed by means of the radial Expansion of the limb, as discussed herein and However, prostheses that are self-expanding, this means they are self-coincident when inside the fascia defect are within the scope of the present invention Invention included. These devices can be made that you unfold, that is axially collapse and expand radially to occlude the defect when they have been positioned within a defect in response on states of the body, that surrounds the defect. Preferably, a loop suture, longitudinally through the cavity of the radially expandable member the axis of the same led becomes, as a means for serve the radial expansion of the member.
Bei bestimmten Ausführungsformen der Erfindung umfaßt das radial expandierbare Glied gegenüberliegende konische Glieder, die jeweils an ihrer Basis fest miteinander verbunden sind, wodurch sie einen Hohlraum bilden, der durch die verbundenen konischen Glieder begrenzt wird. Jeder Konus umfaßt gefaltete Oberflächen, welche die axiale Steifigkeit der Prothese erhöhen und es somit möglich machen, daß die Prothese eine radiale Expansionskraft ausübt, während sie letztendlich die Möglichkeit beibehält, sich an Unregelmäßigkeiten in dem Gewebe oder in der Muskelwand, welche die Öffnung umgeben, anzupassen. Eine röhrenförmige Struktur aus textilem Material oder mehrere derselben können innerhalb des Hohlraums des radial expandierbaren Gliedes aufgenommen sein, um der Prothese zusätzliche axiale Steifigkeit zu verleihen und um somit die Handhabungsmerkmale während der Einführung in den Defekt zu verbessern. Der Begriff röhrenförmige Struktur, wie er hierin verwendet wird, bedeutet die Einbeziehung derjenigen Strukturen, deren Querschnittskonfiguration von Natur aus röhrenförmig ist. Röhrenförmige Struktur schließt im besonderen zylindrische Rollen von Materialien ein, zum Beispiel Netze, bei denen die Querschnittskonfiguration kreisförmig ist, sowie Strukturen, deren Querschnittskonfiguration elliptisch, dreieckig, rechteckig etc. sein kann. Die röhrenförmige Struktur verbessert ebenfalls das radiale Expansionsvermögen der Prothese, wenn sie axial zusammengedrückt wird und der Zylinder zusammenfällt, wodurch eine massive Expansion der Prothese gegen das Gewebe oder die Wandstruktur, welche den Defekt begrenzen, und unterhalb derselben gewährleistet wird.In certain embodiments of the invention, the radially expandable member comprises opposing conical members, each rigidly connected to each other at its base, thereby forming a cavity bounded by the connected conical members. Each cone includes folded surfaces which increase the axial stiffness of the prosthesis and thus allow the prosthesis to exert a radial expansion force while ultimately preserving the possibility of irregularities in the tissue or muscle wall surrounding the opening. adapt. A tubular structure of textile material or more of them can be used in be received within the cavity of the radially expandable member to give the prosthesis additional axial rigidity and thus to improve the handling characteristics during insertion into the defect. The term tubular structure as used herein means the inclusion of those structures whose cross-sectional configuration is inherently tubular. Tubular structure specifically includes cylindrical rollers of materials, for example, nets in which the cross-sectional configuration is circular, and structures whose cross-sectional configuration may be elliptical, triangular, rectangular, etc. The tubular structure also improves the radial expansibility of the prosthesis when compressed axially and the cylinder collapses, thereby ensuring massive expansion of the prosthesis against the tissue or wall structure which defines the defect and below it.
Die Prothesen und das radial expandierbare Glied können aus jeder geeigneten biokompatiblen, flexiblen und porösen medizinischen Textilie hergestellt werden, die bekannt dafür ist, daß sie Gewebe verstärkt und Gewebedefekte verschließt. Bevorzugte Netz-Materialien schließen gewirkte monofile Polypropylen-Netzgewebe ein, wie diejenigen, die von Ethicon, Inc. unter dem Warenzeichen Prolene erhältlich sind, sowie Netze, die von Ethicon, Inc. unter dem Warenzeichen Vicryl erhältlich sind. Andere Netz-Materialien, die bei der Erfindung von Nutzen sind, schließen diejenigen ein, die unter den Warenzeichen Marlex, Dacron, Teflon und Merselene erhältlich sind. Alternativ kann der gewünschte Effekt des Forcierens der Gewebe-Regeneration unter dem Abdeckstreifen durch die Auswahl von biokompatiblen resorbierbaren Materialien für den Einsatz bei der Herstellung des expandierbaren Gliedes erzielt werden. Beispiele geeigneter Materialien sind Vicryl-und Panacryl-Nahtmaterialien, erhältlich von Ethicon, Inc., und Polysorb-Nahtmaterial, erhältlich von der United States Surgical Corporation.The Prostheses and the radially expandable member may be made of any suitable biocompatible, flexible and porous medical textiles, which is known to reinforce tissue and Closes tissue defects. Preferred mesh materials shut down knitted monofilament polypropylene mesh, such as those that available from Ethicon, Inc. under the trademark Prolene, and nets marketed by Ethicon, Inc. under the trademark Vicryl available are. Other mesh materials useful in the invention, shut down those under the trademarks Marlex, Dacron, Teflon and Merselene available are. Alternatively, the desired Effect of promoting tissue regeneration under the cover strip through the selection of biocompatible resorbable materials for the Use can be achieved in the production of the expandable member. Examples of suitable materials are Vicryl and Panacryl sutures, available by Ethicon, Inc., and Polysorb suture, available from the United States Surgical Corporation.

Die Prothese kann die Samenstrangstrukturen aufnehmen, da sie gefaltet ist. Wenn sie expandiert wird, stützt sie sich nur auf die radiale Expansionskraft, die durch das Zusammendrücken der gegenüberliegenden Textilie-Konen erzeugt wird, um den Durchmesser zu vergrößern, im Gegensatz zum Einsatz zusätzlicher halbsteifer Ringe oder anderer steifer oder halbsteifer Glieder. Vorzugsweise umfassen Prothesen der vorliegenden Erfindung keine solchen steifen oder halbsteifen Vorrichtungen. Dies gewährleistet, daß die Vorrichtung voll mit den natürlichen anatomischen Strukturen übereinstimmt.The Prosthesis can absorb the spermatic cord structures as they are folded is. When it is expanded, it relies only on the radial Expansion force, which by squeezing the opposite Textile cones is produced to increase the diameter in the Contrary to the use of additional semi-rigid rings or other rigid or semi-rigid limbs. Preferably, prostheses of the present invention do not comprise any such rigid or semi-rigid devices. This ensures that the Device full of the natural ones anatomical structures matches.
